"Regardless of the Jayhawks' performance on field, Kansas fans continue to flock to Memorial in droves.  2009 represented a struggling Jayhawk squad who managed only five wins (after a stunning 12 win season only two years prior) but still averaged 50,581 fans in a stadium that holds 50,071."

Are any of the other underrated stadiums named after mega-embezzlers/fugitives?

=mods= ? can someone change the title of this thread to Top 25 most underrated high school football stadiums? Thanks.

Only a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) would have a list like that with Colorado on it. Folsom prison is nicer and has less sodomy.
Koppe is a giant idiot bad person for sure but he's nowhere close to as big of an idiot bad person as others.To my knowledge Koppe has never bought an adult trike or talked to a dog whisperer.

New video board this year:

That's not done, though, right?  Looks incomplete on the sides and on the bottom.

makes it easier to repossess in the next few years.

If they ever get the Gridiron Club Build . . . they might as well go for the Trifecta and call it the David Wittig Gridiron Club.

Wash's stadium and campus is amazing.  Their administration building makes Anderson look like a lesbian armpit.  Big open field in front of it looking out over a view of Mt. Ranier. Considering Ranier is about 4X the height of any other mountain in the area, it really stands out for an amazing view.  Flights in get great views of it and St. Helens.

Hands-on-hips is more impressive in widescreen I must admit.

beems, hands-on-hips early in the first quarter of the spring game is not a good sign.

Probably the reason why they had a 25-minute running clock for the second half of their spring game.

I suspect the dinky rathole is destined to remain "underrated."

K-State generated $9.66 million in football ticket revenue and saw average home attendance increase from 50,824 fans to 51,881.
Link Not really sure where the attendance figures are coming from.  I don't recall having 50k+ in our stadium except during the family reunion.

All of the conference games had over 50k  iirc

This farticle thinks Husky Stadez is not quite so dope.  And look at that track.  Horrid.
























I would still go to a game there.

I am glad someone posted this. Husky stadium is an absolute dump. It has an unbelievable atmosphere and crowd, but they aren't starting a multi-million renovation because it doesn't need it.

As for the view, notice most pictures are from the air, not from a typical seat.
